Washington county took no part in this struggle, as the war ended about the time the first settlement was made within its territory .* The names of the Revolutionary soldiers and the part each took in the common cause, who resided here afterward, we have mentioned, so far as known to us, in their re- spective town sketches.
The surrender of Cornwallis, at Yorktown, October 17, 1781, virtually put an end to all these troubles, and the " Green Mountain Boys" were soon again enjoying the privileges of peace.
WAR OF 1812.
The yoke of the mother country having been thrown off, the American colonies rapidly advanced in material prosperity and wealth. Vermont ex- panded into a free and independent state, and was finally received into the sisterhood of the Union, March 4, 1791. In the meantime the French nation, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, had arrived at the zenith of military glory, and was giving England great cause for fear and trembling. England, in turn, seeming to forget that her American offspring had arrived at maturity and was able to protect its own institutions, continued her acts of tyranny. Looking upon herself as mistress of the ocean, during her wars with Napoleon, she utterly disregarded the rights of the United States as a neutral nation. Her cruisers would stop and search American vessels, and seize such able- bodied seamen as were needed, on the pretext that they were British subjects. An American frigate, not in a condition to resist, having been subjected to this indignity, almost within sight of an American port, after receiving several broadsides for denying the right of such search, the President issued a proc- lamation ordering all British ships of war to quit the waters of the United States. Congress also laid an embargo on American vessels, detaining them at home, but afterwards substituted a non-intercourse act, prohibiting trade with Great Britain. All intercourse between this state and the people of Canada was prohibited, without a permit from the governor, under a penalty of $1,000 fine and imprisonment at hard labor in the state penitentiary for a term of seven years.
Notwithstanding all this, England persisted in her offensive course. All hopes of obtaining concessions on the impressment question from her were at length abandoned. George III., who was still on the throne, had become

insane, and the men who had managed affairs were as short-sighted as his advisors had been forty years before, whose folly had provoked the Revolu- tion. Longer submission to their arrogant claims was deemed unworthy of a free nation, and war was therefore formally declared by the United States, June 18, 1812.
Vermont, thinking that the difficulties of the times required its sentiments. to be known by the other states, adopted the following resolution : " We therefore pledge ourselves to each other to our government, that with our individual exertions, our examples and influence, we will support our govern- ment and country in the present contest, and rely on the Great Arbiter of events for a favorable result." This resolution Washington county sustained to the letter. Suffice it to say, two years the storm of war raged, after which the victorious soldiers again returned to their quiet and peaceable avoca- tions.
WAR FOR THE UNION.
For nearly half a century after the War of 1812 peace brooded. over the green hills and fertile valleys of Vermont. Youths had grown to manhood and old age; the gray-haired grandsire, as he trotted the children upon his. knee, rehearsed to them the tales they best loved to hear-tales of the deeds. of the brave McDonough and "Old Ethan." Prosperity asserted itself in the hum of busy machinery, telling of the increase of manufacturing inter- ests in the silver threads that were branching in all directions, proclaim- ing the route of the "iron horse " as it conveyed to prosperous marts the. harvest surplus. The sun rose each morn on a prosperous, happy, contented people ; but alas ! as its rays gilded the Green Mountain summits on the morning of April 21, 1861, it awakened no answering smile in the hearts of the people. The first shot upon Sumter had frightened away the angel Peace, and grim War reigned in her stead. The hearts of the "Green Mountain Boys " were again touched with the old fire of patriotism and. burned with martial ardor; the dreams of peace were forgotten ; naught was remembered but their insulted flag-the flag purchased with the blood of their fathers-to which they owed their liberties, homes, and the plenty® that surrounded them.
Side by side with her sister states Vermont endured the weary marches and bore the brunt of battles, and side by side their sons sleep the long sleep. -some 'neath the sun-kissed plains of the willful South, and some rocked in the bosom of the broad Atlantic, "held in the hollow of His hand." Others have been borne to rest among their kindred by sympathizing friends, who, year by year, to muffled drum-beat, wend their way to their consecrated tombs to deck their graves with beautiful spring flowers-a national tribute to the gallant dead, 5,128 of whom Vermont sacrificed as her share towards the preservation of the nation's unity, freed from the curse of slavery, so long a foul blot upon her fair fame. Vermont promptly filled every quota,

and every dollar needed was furnished with alacrity. Of her treasure, $9,087,352.40 was expended in furnishing the 34,238 loyal sons and repre- sentatives who went out to fight the battles of their country, 5,022 of whom were discharged from the service with shattered constitutions, or maimed in body, to renew the peaceful avocations of life as circumstances would per- mit. The following complete roster of men who went from Washington county as commissioned officers, and of those who, enlisting in the ranks, were subsequently promoted to a commission, is compiled from the State Adjutant and Inspector-General's report of 1866, and from other sources. For convenience the names are arranged in alphabetical order, the dates referring to commissions, the date of muster being omitted : -
